This place is the real deal. Do not be fooled by its location (in a shabby shopping center). Dr. Linh and crew are extremely professional and competent. I have been going here for years. It is fairly easy to get an appointment and she is always on time. I also purchase my eyeglasses here. Their prices cannot be beat and they carry all the latest designers/styles. In fact, most of my family members go here when it is time to get new glasses. Last time I was here, my mom literally tried on 50 glasses and they were so kind and patient. They even ordered additional eyeglasses for her to try on. I don't think its advertised, but they also do free cleaning and adjustments on your glasses. I pop in every so often to get my sunglasses and eyeglasses adjusted. I had a little emergency a couple weeks ago while on vacation (I forgot to pack my contacts). They actually communicated with a doctor in the area where I was staying and faxed him a prescription so that I could get some to hold me over while I was out of town. They are amazing and I will be a patient for life! read more

My family and I been coming here for a few years now and so far we have no complaints. Dr. Linh is very friendly and answers any questions and addresses any concerns I have regarding my vision and eyes. I love how she takes off my contacts and puts them back in for me. I really want to learn how she does it all with just one finger! And I like how she gives me a trial pair of contacts when my vision changes. Her staff is also friendly and helps me every time in trying to find the right frames for me. If there isn't a color in stock that I want for the frames, they offer to look up other colors and order them for me. read more

5 stars!! This place is awesome! I called in to make an appointment had same day availability. Got checked in real quick less than 10 minutes. The Dr. answered all my questions and did an awesome job! Got my glasses the same day which is what I needed and kept me well in budget without having vision insurance! read more

Dr. was thorough and I felt confident about the exam. I paid only $80 for an eye exam. She also gave me a free pair of trial contacts too since my prescription had gotten slightly worst. Also, the $80 charge includes a $20 charge to dilute my eyes. This was an optional procedure. She is the ONLY optometrist I've had who puts on and takes off my contacts for me. Its a nice little touch that I appreciate. And its nice to feel taken care of. There was no wait time when I came. The Dr. was very nice and personable as the previous reviewers stated. We spent quite some time just chatting and I didn't feel rushed at all. Reasonable price & great service...I will be back! read more

My ~entire~ family and I have gone to Dr. Linh for years and we couldn't be more happy to have her as our family optometrist. She is attentive to detail, approachable, and overall makes you feel at ease. Her staff is great as well whether it is over the phone or in person! Thanks for tending to my unusually high prescription all these years (OD (-10.00) and OS (-11.00)) (yes, I am fairly blind), Crystal Vision Optometry! read more

Great place! I was in desperate need of new glasses because mine cracked! Yikes! Dr. Linh was so nice and helpful, she got me in and out super quick. Last time I got my glasses at a super fancy place in South Coast Plaza and felt super pressured to spend A LOT of cash. NOT here really cheap and it's a lot nice inside. I highly recommend! read more

I recently purchased my first pair of eyeglasses through an online retailer. It being my first time having to take care of glasses, I didn't know not to leave them in the car during the crazy hot weather. My frames on my new glasses bent. I took them to a close by optometrist (with excellent yelp reviews) and they said that they only fix glasses if you bought it from them. I learned my lesson and called these guys in advance, they said they would be able to adjust my glasses for me. I came in 10 minutes later, waited a few minutes, and they adjusted my glasses for free! I was expecting to have to pay some kind of fee. Not only was it free but he did a great job, I could tell he was being careful and he even cleaned my lenses for me. I'll be coming here in the future! read more

Just picked u my CHANEL glasses. Dr. Anh Linh always does a great job. I got the anti-glare and super thin lens. I will always go back. I dropped them off last Wednesday and picked them up on Monday. Super fast service. Two thumbs up. read more

I've come into this location for glasses and contacts and thought this was a good location as a friend recommended it. In the past when I've asked for a copy of my prescription from other optometrist I run into the same thing where I get prescription that are not completely filled out which makes it more difficult to purchase online. I have a wider head and they don't carry the size I want and sadly I take the prescription to choose glasses and the office left off the Pupillary distance which is needed to order the glasses that will fit my face. Waste of time and a trip. I would like to think they wouldn't have done that because I've purchased glasses and contacts as well as getting a vision screening here. read more

After going to multiple eye doctors I happen to stop by here because it was close to my work. The frames they offer are very stylish and up to date. The Doctor knew exactly what she was doing and explained in terms I could understand what was wrong with my eyes. I didn't have to wait long at all to be seen and the employees are very helpful when it comes to picking out the right lenses for me. I will recommend this place to everyone! read more

I've been seeing this optometrist for years. It's too bad they don't take VSP insurance. She was always an honest doctor that wants to save me money. The price is very fair there and I really like her. Maybe one day I can come back here. read more

I love this place! It's great and affordable :) I go in without an appointment & they're always ready. Dr. Linh is very gentle with everything and its an easy procedure. Glad I found this place! Highly recommended. read more

I've been coming here for years. I haven't been in quit awhile and when I finally made an appt they remembered who I was. And as Dr. Linh walked up to me and after not seeing me for along time she looked at me and was like "welcome back Alexa it's been a long time" even though they a have a lot of patients they have a pretty good memory! This is the only place I will go to, the staff is amazing and very warm and welcoming! I recommend coming here if you're looking for a place you can afford if you don't have insurance! read more

Putting this dood on blast: I spent what felt like an eternity scouring Amazon on 5* polarized lenses and found an army of $10-30 ranging competitors. Stuffy and whatevers, right? Pssh, I fell in love with none. A month went. Ran into a good man. A buddy of mine had introduced me to Tony Nguyen who happens to run one of OC's finest, @crystalvision optometry centers. For the record, saving money was not necessary. I make more than enough. What I'm more interested in is the history/ethos of the place. @smilingfool1226 (tony) agreed to lunch, in which he educated me on C. V. 's 20 year heritage built on basic universal laws: no sales, pure service. Easy to say, I was mega impressed with the whole 9, which made me more eager to spend a wad cash unthinkable for most common folks. Indeed is the golden rule, what you put in is what you get out. $250 for the lenses w/o frame, and I'm a happy guy. NOTE: UV protection, polycarbonate crystals, inside glare prevention, polarized. Sent in the glass the day of and got it back the same night. Thanks, Tony read more

My mama comes here and honestly the dr is very nice. My mom got a prescription here and months later she needed it changed and they did free of charge when policy is only for a month. It's nice to know that they're not only after the $ and that they care for patients. read more

I love this optometrist. She is so nice and gentle with my eyes. She even take out and puts on my contacts for me. I mean who does that nowadays. I went to another doctor closer to me and was totally ripped off. Now I only go to crystal vision. Very honest doctor and very reasonable prices. read more

Love my experiences here. Most of my family also goes here. We started going here a few years ago and we don't plan on going anywhere. We always feel taken care of. The office staff is ALWAYS super attentive and happy to help. read more

I have high standards for medical care because I'm a health professional myself (medical doctor). I highly recommend Dr. Anh Linh Nguyen to everyone I know because of how knowledgeable, professional and caring she is. She is able to answer all my questions with ease, and my eyesight is always clear whenever she adjusts my prescriptions. The staff is also very professional, no shady business or tried to sell my glasses when I was only there for an exam. Pricing is affordable for a thorough exam. I'm glad I found this office on yelp 5 years ago! read more

Service is great but you will spend a lot of time here for an appointment. They have great follow up and follow through so we keep on coming back. Our entire family comes here. :-) read more

Good service, cheap price and friendly staff. Got my contact lenses here and they are awesome!

This place gets no stars. They are the worst optometrist in OC. They fraud your insurance company and still charge a grip load out of pocket. I do NOT recommend coming here. You will regret it. Save your self time and money. Fraud Fraud Fraud! read more

No complaints. Made an appointment... easy. Waiting time when I walked in the office... less than 2 minutes. Ordered contacts and glasses, received prompt follow up calls. Professional, courteous, kind, hospitable...... all in all, 5 Star no doubt. A bit shocked that this type of customer service is offered at an Optometrist office. Only if restaurants and hotels all acted like these folks. Well done. read more

I've worn the glasses they made almost a year now. For some reason, I get bad headaches when I wear them. At first they seem ok. I can see good details but also noticed objects appear smaller than if I don't wear them. The headaches are worst when I look at close objects for prolonged period. Recently, I've had to use my old pair and my headaches has now gone. I use her glasses mainly for driving only. I honestly think the optometrist gave me too strong a prescription. Oh well, I'll try my luck at another store... read more

Dr. Linh is the best! She really takes care of you. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I'm 51, and truly, this was the best customer service I've experienced my entire life, from both Dr. and staff. Most knowledgeable, trustworthy, friendly, and helpful beyond belief. Won't beat their eye-exam prices either. Definitely made my day! read more

This place is really great. The staff is as friendly, helpful, and professional as one would desire as a customer. They also have good variety in glasses and offer all types of contacts. Thumbs up for this service. read more
